Hurricane Safety
Guidelines Issued
The National Weather Service
cautioned the hurricane season here
is approaching now and people
should be alert to the dangers
presented by a hurricane.
Civil preparedness coordinator Bill
Niven said everyone should
familiarize themselves with hurricane
safety rules.
Hurricanes are an annual threat
whose average annual toll for the
past 50 years has been about 100
deaths and SI50 million worth of
property damage. The official
hurricane season is from June 1
through November 30. although a
few have occurred outside this span,
the state civil preparedness office
said.
HURRICANE SAFETY RULES
A hurricane watch means a
hurricane may threaten an area
within 34 hours.
A hurricane warning means a
hurricane is expected to strike an
area within 24 hours.
Enter each hurricane season
prepared. Each spring, recheck your
supply of boards, tools, batteries,
nonperishable foods, and other
equipment you will need if a
hurricane strikes your town.
When your area is covered by a
hurricane watch, continue normal
activities, but stay tuned to radio or
television for National Weather
Service Advisories. Ignore rumors.
When your area receives a
hurricane warning:
Continuously monitor the storm's
position through Weather Service
Advisories.
Check battery-powered
equipment. A portable radio may
? become your only link with the
outside world. Emergency cooking
facilities and flashlights will be
essential if utilities are interrupted.
Have your car fully fueled.
If you own a boat, secure it before
the storm arrives or move it to a safe
area. When the boat is moored, leave
?REPORT?

merely because of some artificial
pressure which is exerted by big oil
companies. What is needed is some
hard evidence from those who argue
for deregulation which will
demonstrate that such an action will
insure gas to run our factories and
heat our homes.
Once obtained, all evidence
substantiating the case for
deregulation must be studied in light
of the fact that once all price
controls are removed then we in
North Carolina are at the mercy of
one supplier who happens to be the
only source of gas that is available to
? us.
This is a very perplexing problem;
and hopefully, some solid
information will be available before
Congress is called upon to take
I action.
it. Don't return to it once the wind
and waves are up.
Board up windows or protect
them with storm shutters or tape.
Secure outdoor objects that might
be blown away or damaged, or bring
them inside.
Store drinking water - your
town's water supply may be
contaminated or diminished by
hurricane floods.
Leave low-lying areas when
advised to do so. If you live in a
mobile home, leave it for more
substantial shelter. Mobile homes are
extremely vulnerable to high winds.
If your home is sturdy and at a
safe elevation, remain indoors during
the hurricane.
Because hurricanes often cause
severe Hooding as they move inland,
stay away from the banks of rivers
and streams.
Tornadoes are often spawned by
hurricanes and are among the storms'
lethal effects. When a hurricane
approaches, listen to radio and TV
for tornado warnings.

Lesson
A woman went to a psychiatrist
because she felt she was suffering
"om an inferiority complex. After
examimng her the psychiatrist said,
Madam, 1 find that you do not have
an inferiority complex; you are
simply inferior!" y
To some degree, this is true of all
of us. We feel adequate in the face of
some trial and, in fact we are
inadequate! We find that we are not
Strong enough or patient enough
Hie challenge is too great for us.
Yet, although we can acknowledge
our own personal inadequacy we
still have not called upon all' our
resources. There is still the power of
God by which we become more than
adequate for the challenge before us
As Paul says it, "I can do all things in
J1'? who strengthens me"
(Philippians4:13).
Note that Paul does not say that
he can "do all things" by himself.
?"l?on'y ,m h'm who strengthens
me. Abraham Lincoln said much
die same thing when, as President -
elect he said goodbye to his
neighbors in Springfield, Illinois, and
left for Washington: "Without the
assistance of that Divine Being I
rannot succeed. With that assistance
I cannot fail."
Yes, let sickness come, let trouble
surround me, let sorrow enter my
life let tragedy strike me, let friends
and loved ones fail me, let enemies
threaten me -- and I am not able! But
God is! By his power, 1 can see
through whatever life may send me.
This was Paul's experience. In
writing the church at Corinth (where
he probably had more trouble than
my other single place), he sets forth
the record of God's adequacy.
We are affiliated in every way, but
not crushed; perplexed, but not
driven to despair; persecuted but not
forsaken; struck down, but not
destroyed (2 Corinthians 4:8,9)
John Ellis Urge, who used to be
the Pastor of the Church of the
Heavenly Rest in New York City
was once asked to read the Christmas
story from the Bible on ? major
network television show. During the
rehearsal. Dr. Large was asked to do
his reading. Accustomed to speaking
jn a very large cathedral like church
Dr. Large read the story in his
normal preaching voice, which was
quite loud. Also, accustomed to
having his pulpit almost a full city
block from those seated in the last
pew, his gestures were somewhat
exaggerated.
Thus while he was in the midst of
his reading, he heard the director's
voice break in: "Pardon my breaking
in on you. Dr. Urge, but you don't
have to strain your vocal chords
Your unaided voice doesn't have to
reach from Manhattan to Los
Angeles, nor is it necessary for you
to gesture in so exaggerated a
fashion. He paused, then added:
You see, the Director is completely
equipped to magnify both your
words and your actions as needed If
you will jus, quietly communicate
result Ca'e ?f enliirglng the end
Dr. Large said that these words
no! only helped him with the
television program, but also in life as
well. Too often he had tried to meet
challenges by himself. He needed to
be reminded that when the going gets
hard. God can magnify our resumes

Equivalency Certificate
Program A Success
RALhIGH -- Since the high school
equivalency program was begun in
North Carolina in the early 1940s,
approximately 66,780 adults have
been awarded the equivalency
ceriificate, according to Larry
Roberson, General Education
Development Administrator (GED),
Department of Community Colleges.
The high school equivalency
program is administered by the
Department of Community Colleges
and certificates are issued by the
State Board of Education.
This program was begun in North
Catolina to afford adults who have
not completed high school the
opportunity to demonstrate their
general education competence by
taking a series of tests and qualifying
for the certificate.
The certificate is generally
rccogni/ed by industry,
governmental agencies, colleges and
other schools as the equivalent of the
high school diploma.
One North Carolina woman is an
example of what can be
accomplished after receiving the high
school equivalency certificate. This
person had completed the eighth
grade when she took the GED tests.
After she sucessfully completed the
tests she was accepted as a student
by North Carolina State University.
After she finished her studies at
North Carolina State, she was
awarded a scholarship to Oxford
University in England where she
received a degree in philosophy. This
woman said the certificate opened a
whole new world for her.
According to Roberson, there are
70 GED testing centers in the state.
The great majority of these centers
are located at technical institutes and
community colleges. Some technical
institutes and community colleges
have more than one testing center.
Persons who are not high school
graduates may apply and take the
tests, providing they are 18 years of
age and have been out of the public
school program for at least six
months. They must also be residents
of this state.
Men and women 16 to 18 years of
age may be considered persons with
special needs and permitted to take
ihe high school equivalency
examination. According to
Roberson, this is allowable only if
the application for admission to the
examination is endorsed by a local
superintendent of schools or a letter
of release is obtained from the office
of the local superintendent.
One of the ways men and women
can prepare themselves for the GED
tests is through study in a learning
laboratory at a technical institute or
community college.
